Filter by:In this study, a lipase -sourced from a nonpyrogenic yeast, Candida rugosa, will be investigated to establish optimal TG levels in adults in a 12-week supplementation period. The investigational product provides a lipase formulation that is stable and active in acidic and neutral pH environments, while also fully digesting TGs into free fatty acids and glycerol which is beyond the scope of pancreatic lipase (Schuler et al. 2012). This will be a novel study investigating the effects of C. rugosa lipase on adults with slightly elevated TG levels.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) in response to the ingestion of a mixture of glucose and fructose is greater in South Asians compared to controls (Caucasians).
The aim of this study is to demonstrate whether, along with dietary recommendations, Armolipid Plus ® can improve the profile of patients with elevated plasma LDL-C acting as a change of lifestyle therapy (TLC) according to the definition of Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III)
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of two different non-energy restricted controlled carbohydrate programs with the American Diabetes Associations' diet on glycosylated hemoglobin and other diabetes risk factors in obese adolescents with metabolic syndrome, a constellation of symptoms associated with the development of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Dietary fructose potently exacerbates the dyslipidemia associated with obesity, insulin resistance and accelerated atherosclerosis. In a randomized crossover outpatient study of 15 overweight adults, we will measure the increase over 4 hours in serum VLDL triglyceride palmitate made by the liver from each single oral dose of fructose (0.5 g/kg), fructose:glucose 1:1 (1 g/kg) or fructose:glucose 1:1 (2 g/kg). Our hypotheses are that the synthesis of palmitate from dietary fructose will be 1) greater when consumed with glucose and 2) show a dose-response. The lipogenic responses will be compared and correlated with markers of carbohydrate and lipid flux measured after fasting and post-fructose. The results will serve as a guide to the development of a new outpatient probe of the de novo lipogenic pathway in subjects who vary in their lipogenic response to oral fructose. These studies should ultimately yield valuable new information about the mechanisms linking dietary carbohydrate to elevated triglycerides, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
